Modern Communications

The way we interact with each other is modulated by technology. Letters and old photos are superseded by images, texts, reminders that Facebook's algorithm pushes at us. Exes and estranged friends surface themselves on LinkedIn. The dead haunt our inboxes. Also, some cool glitch tools!

This one is more of an industry read, but it still has tons of interesting images and thoughts on the way we interact with text, and how we still use it. Quoth the author: "I believe comfort, not convenience, is the most important thing in software, and text is an incredibly comfortable medium."

Way's Notes

Hey! How goes it? Despite having a social weekend, I still managed to get some stuff done. One of those things I actually put into the world is a short blog post on why I gave up trying to figure out the meaning of life, if you're interested. Otherwise, other boring stuff like budgeting, figuring out nutrition, working out. I hope you did something exciting this week! If not, that's cool, too. A boring week is a boon sometimes. :)
